Hi i have a canon 450d dslr camera. when i take a picture and take a look on the LCD screen only the top half has come out while the bottom half is black as if something is obstructing the lens plus its struggling to focus. The battery was low could that be the reason?

Maybe. Charge the battery and take off the lens. Fire off a few shots and check to see that the mirror flips up all the way. ...

I own a Canon Powershot A95.
Some shots show up with a red/pink tinge from the middle to the right side. Half way from the middle to the edge of left of the shot, the picture has the normal full colour presentation.
My local camera shop technician told it could be the camera's electronic sensor playing up.
Thanks, Mark.

When I turn on my Canon PowerShot A75 digital camera, it has streaky pink lines. When that finally clears up,(which may take several minutes) it usually has a pink tint.

Canon Rebel XT / EOS 350D Digital Camera

I bought digital Canon EOS Rebel XT two years ago, and I have really big problem with AF. I got one half of the pictures fuzzy. Sometimes the green light is on, I took the picture and it is fuzzy. Next shot is fine. I never have this kind of problem with Canon Rebel ( not digital). Now I can't rely on Auto Focus at all. Please explain to me where is a problem.
Thanks,
Irene
